In And now comes Mr. T. H. DaDlet, the
Washington correspondent of the Spartanburg
Herald, and says there never was any
fight ol any sort in tbe house over the duty od
. Dotasb. Mr. Daniel makes this statement in
!Q- a letter to Tbe Herald,In reply to aoommuo:16
cation from Mr. Lever, who complained tbat
1 a Mr. Daniel bad not been fair to him, Mr.
Daniel writes:
be To tbe Editor of Tbe Herald:
Tbe communication (of Representative
by Lever In Tbe Herald or April 22 has Just
come to my attention. Your editorial reply,
ed printed ;n the same Issue, was entirely sufliay
olent, ol course, and demonstrates the jpovl -
erty of excuse that Mr. Lever has oneted
ut for bis voting directly contrary to tbe demand
of the democratic platform of 1908 tbat
he lumber be placed on the iree list,
ic- However, with referen.ce to bis cbarge tbat
;er I have been unialr to him in my dispatches,
in ihat I did not give him credit for his "fight
re- tor the farmer in connection with baslo slag
>m and potash salts, there Is something to be
said which Mr, Lever did not say, and that
he it*, that there was no Btiob fight.
be Tbe facts, briefly ?tated' areas follow*:
ey Tbe third section of the Payne tarltl bill
he contained wbat is generally relerred to aa
the "maximum at d minimum" provision,
cb Mr. Lever's own statement of tbe working
of tbat provision is bere given, so tbat it may
not be considered as "unjust".;
"If Germany, or any other country, for tbat
rj. matter, should, to secure some Important
? treaty right, give the least concession upon
3(j the iea6t article of trade, and to that extent
discriminate against the United States, then
r6 the maximum duty automatically applies
im" to imports from her."
nt Potash Balls, wife In the Payne bill, placed
ul uuder the workifcg of tbls provision. Eton
Q(j J. Bowers, a representative Irom Mississippi,
da and others first called attention to tt and 11
U, was immediately stated by the members of
ibe ways and means committee, wbo bad
De framed,the bill, that It was an error and
HI would be corrected, so tbat these articles
lte should be absolutely upon the free list. Laict
ter Mr. Lever became active. He bunted up
the newspaper men, and began to talk of the
great tight In which be was engaged. He
w_ got Into communication with prominent
D(? South Carollnans, and made them acqualn
jl_ ted with his great struggle lor the southern
farmer, tie gave out Interviews and made a
'Ul speech on the floor of the house, protesting
0l vehemently against this provision of the
Payne bill, which he called a "Joker". All
tnis be it remembered, was alter it was poB'r6
tlvely known tbat the ,maximum ana minimum
provision was not intended to apply
lBl to potasli salts or any other fertilizer inch
tredieuts and there was posttvely no opposition
to the correction of the error which
He had been discovered in the bill.

UGGESTIONS FOR WORK IN APRIL. Missi
April ma; be culled, b.v wuy ol distinction,
be planting month. Pl*ntlrig Ik of course
one In other monthf, but usually if there Ik .
lot too much rain It is the aim of the farmer IQ a
0 have the ootton aD'l a Urge part of tbe aloua
orn planted by May 1. Much denends on Hera
he rainfall In March ??nd April. If excesc- ..
ve In tbeee months tbe finishing of tbe
ilantlng will be deterred until far Into May. tends
1 is possible to make corn planted In June, gratu
ind even some cotton. But for these crops .
bis lg rather late. Conditions are never Jusi C0QV1
mat we want them, and the wise farmer this c
mows tbls, and will so make his plans as to Cbrls
ake advantage of tbe working times when
tiey do come. In no calling does a little fore- coun
bought count for more th,?n In agriculture. mlssl
VII tilings seem to work together toasslst tbe thine
houghtful, careful man, and everything apmreotly
1b against tbe other kind. Do not
ilame on Providence what should rather be cburi
sbareed to yourself. W?
These are a few thoughts for April work, . .
let down without much order. There Is ,~lj
nothing new iu them, tor they are repeated F' *
Lvery year in the agricultural pres*. '?clu
Thought one Is: Do not try to prepare p,?"
more land than there are people to cultivate. * j|
It might 'e possible to get In couditloo a ,
much larger acreiige than could subsequently '
be rightly til ed. Is this not perfectly evi- f.??
dent? Then It Is better to think of this be- ??
forehand than to be forced to do some hard, 2?z!
disagreeable thinking later on.-^ ?.? *
Thought two Is: Prepare thoroughly and
well for the planting. Deep stirring of the p>fh
sol can bedonebettei belore the seed are In ?T, ,
the ground than afterwards. This Is the i ,
time, usually, to let the plow go down to the .p,
subsoil. Try to avo d making clods, or If f"
there are cl< ds, break them with tbe harrow "
Tbe disc is floe for destroying clods; sols the
Thomas barrow. Especial attcnilon should
be given to this question of deep, thorough
stirring of tbe soil before p anting. We want |Vr 1
a good mellow seed-bed, so that the rains :!J?
can sink Into the ground Instead of running :FK

OH, QUU PU luab IUO piauii n/Wba rvwv..w.v
deeply In eeareb of plant food. Aftergrowth HlJi!
cori mences, roots are sent oat In every dlrec- .ar
Jlon In search of plant lood and water, and '
deep tillage will destroy these laterals, madlng
It necessary for the plants to grow new cheu
roots to replace those destroyed by the plow. |e(j(
Some root-pranlog Is unavoidable, but the n?rl
less there Is. the better It will be for the life {J, '
and development of the plant. Whatever
deep tillage Is done should be done soon after #
the crop c?mes up, belore the formation of "fn
many roots, and the later cultivations should i
be shallow. '<T(1
Tbrougbt three Is: Do not neglect the gar- h
den In the hurry of doing the field work ,lm
The garden looks like a small unimportant d,tl
thing, but If there are many In the family, Dre(
vegetables will be needed. Even those who
process a dislike for them will usually be bro
found eating them when they are placed on gDb
the table. So try, If possible,, to get th? gar- wlt
den well prepared and free of clods. If fhls ?0i.
Is not done In March, It can yet be done. II 0
the bedolng Is done at the right time there tv^
will not be many clods, and If there are some, ma.
they can be broReo wtlb mattock or barrow. th.
The rest should then be easy. Anyone, even jj"
those with slight Iraroe and strength, can unf
nlant.gardan seeds. The English peas arid lwc
Irish potatoes should have been planted ear- w0.
ler, but April Is a good month for most of the V)c
general planting. b .
It you are still going by the moon, It will ?,
oerbaps be useless to say anything along this m. (
line, as It Is Impossible to convince a moon- n1.
'? nf ?q?iq (hot he Is "L"
-inner uy any anV ? __ ...
wrong. I would not, in all seriousness, wait Qb.
ill tbe moon whs "right." If tbe ground and No
'<e wextber are rlgbt. and tbe seed are good, Dni
t will be all right to planfTbem. One 01 tier no.
ingestion may be made: It Is, to make tbe <Q
>w8 as long as tbe lay of tbe land and tbe ,0 ,
ize of garden wl!l permit. A good large gai- <p
den Inclosure, say half an acre or more, S* o0{
best; but If you bave not tbat kind make tbe <?)
most of what you bave, by carefol working eyJ
and manuring. By having Ibe rows as long .ias
possible, tbe plow can do more of tbe work w0
and with less lots of valuable time. A man D|c
wltb tbe rlgbt kind of plow can do more In J,e(
one hour than can be done by band in a day, aoE
of certain kinds of work. It Is Important, h0
too, to leave a border at tbe end or rows, to
save tramping of plowed ground and break- o[,
log of plants.
In some localities It may be well to practice /ro
specialization In crop-production. Wltb us I Qe{
believe more diversification should be practiced.
We bave already planted cotton too
exclusively, and while It will remain the
great standard crop of tbe South, perhaps for
all time, we need to find means of preserving
tbe soil, thb basis of most of tbe wealth of
the 8ontbern States. By diversifying Is not &
meant tbat each one should attempt toraUe Co
something of everything, lor tbat would pl?
manifestly be Impossible, but tbat we should J
cease 10 be growers of cotton, to tbe neglect on
of those things tbat are necessary to tbe con- 3
tlnued life aort productiveness of tbe soli. To da;
express tbIs a Utile differently, we must bId
plant s6i) renovating.crops. Id order to con- 3
tlnue to raise cotton successfully. Someone sp<
will perhaps tblnk, we can continue to raise sis
cotton year alter 3 ear on tbe same ground Ab
I without lis becoming Impoverished; butob- 3
servatlon end experience do not snow inir. >u
Wby bo many old fields and gullies? Let this
April mark a new point of departure In your Pl{
methods of work. Open wide tbe doors of *
the mind to let In tbe trutb, and be assured WJ
that it will iree you from past errors In toi
thought or practice. mt

is business. 11 be can, to help drive aull
away a little at least, by whimsical short
comment on passing events,and he takes
Ler latitude than the sermonlzer because
nows that be will not be tasen too scity,
except, perhaps by SQmeone predlsd
to fault finding.
e little paragraph was to the effect that
hose American missionaries bad remaint
home instead of trying to proselyte the

that "This is as unkind as It Is unjust

*. are iavorea by living In a Christian
I, where churches abound, and where in
the churches (almost) the support of Joii
missions Is one of the chief lines of

from our people annually for the fcbp1
mlulnn?an(l missionaries. u nd
ley flows out of tbe country in an endless

weat shop horrors al home, of the armies

Ject any thought, and In this matter acts

brtDQHtes. But, Is It uot true that if those

jid not have shared the fate of the other
ilm?of this massacre? Can the truth ever

/by should they have gone to Turkey?

lurk was ever converted to Christianity,
ess It was lor some loaves and flRbes, and
ie ever will be. Then the mandate quoted
regard to missionary effort does not apply
nlsslou work in Turkey.
he fact is that missionary work In Turkey
is not come within the scope of thefitble
unction. It is misdirected zeal. Tbe moorequired
for its support could be much betapplied
in otber ways, and the men and
men engaged in this work could be emiyed
where devoted missionaries are worse
sded or have a chance to really spread the
ipel. Of course, if tbey prefer Turkish stans
ibis is their privilege: but if there, like
) innocent bystander in a family row, any
:?em get hurt, it is true that this would not
re happened if they bad remained away
m a place where they really had no buslis
to be.
